E Ball's inflatable golf simulator saves you greens fees

Never mind paying absurd quantities of cash to have some swing analyzer tell you how you'll never be like Tiger -- just pick yourself up one of these concoctions. E Ball's inflatable golf simulator not only consumes your entire backyard, it takes you back to those glory days of frolicking at the fair with your BFF, and it even allows you to practice your game in less-than-flawless weather. The device enables amateurs to work on their driving and putting, all without having to fetch balls afterwards or deal with the embarrassment of completely hacking it up in front of your more seasoned pals. It looks as if you'll have to ring up E Ball in order to get pricing details, but we don't envision this one coming in cheap.

The only thing I can think is "Why is he gripping the club the wrong way?"

[Puhsitch Posted May 29th 2008 8:19AM]

You're right! He's got some sort of funky backhanded grip going there. I've only seen one person ever do that...it was a guy on the senior tour that had to swing with his hands reversed for some reason because of his prosthetic leg. He was amazingly good at it.

That guy went on to become a model..

[theattack Posted May 29th 2008 8:59AM]

I think he's actually just facing the wrong way, with a left handed swing.

[murphythadog Posted May 29th 2008 11:21AM]

It's backwards because he's from Australia.

The absolute first thing I noticed. Creepy stuff!

[(Unverified) Posted May 30th 2008 2:20AM]

Wow! I never noticed, but that's the way I hold my clubs and I do a lot of golfing. I am surprised none of my buddies have noticed.

And when you're done, the kids can use it as a bouncy bouncy castle.

[jgpuff Posted May 29th 2008 9:21AM]

"Never mind paying absurd quantities of cash to have some swing analyzer tell you how you'll never be like Tiger -- just pick yourself up one of these concoctions"...for absurd quantities of cash.


Hmmm.

My BFF says wii don't need that.

[Shane Posted May 29th 2008 10:13AM]

It's a bouncy castle for grownups!

[Xepol Posted May 29th 2008 10:27AM]

Now you can go outside to go inside a smelly tent to pretend to do something you would normally do outside...

I'm thinking that if you can afford both the tent itself, and enough realty to put it on, green fees shouldn't be that great a hardship.

Personally, I can't even see this as a party feature, since by its very nature it is both anti-social and highly annoying if there is a line.

And I wish I had a hundred of them to rent out to people with disposable cash to burn....

[murphythadog Posted May 29th 2008 11:23AM]

I wonder how much this thing cost. I'm thinking about 15k.
